"biggest point spread NCAA upset ever"???
I don't care if UNLV was great last year, I can't understand how you get such a point spread when you're talking about a program outside of the Power 5.
It's almost as if it might benefit someone in Las Vegas to have concocted such a spread.....

I agree, ESPN is just lazy most of the time..... don't know if the fix was in (hard to believe UNLV would be involved in any sort of cheating scandal ;)
but here was a pretty good write-up.... (from an sports fan perspective)

of note:
Here, a 45-point spread wasn’t even unreasonable, considering Howard has:
- In 2016, lost 52-13 to Maryland and 52-14 to Rutgers
- In 2015, lost 49-0 to Appalachian State and 76-0 to Boston College

I actually watched their 1st game (well, much of it :) ) JMO- Yes, their QB is big and athletic... but not very accurate. O-line is very undersized and did not hold up well to any pressure. They have some speed at RB and WR - but not size, and again - not very accurate targeting by QB. D line is very small......
